Complexes of copper(II) and cobalt(II) halides with 4-(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-6-methyl-2-phenylpyrimidine: Synthesis, structures, and properties
摘要:
Copper(II) and cobalt(II) complexes with 4-(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-6-methyl-2-phenylpyrimidine (L) of the general formula MLX2 (M = Cu(II), X = Cl and Br; M = Co(II), X = Cl, Br, and I) were obtained. According to X-ray diffraction data, CuLBr2 and CoLX2 (X = Cl, Br, and I) are mononuclear molecular complexes. The ligand L is coordinated to the metal atom in a chelating bidentate fashion through the N atoms of the pyrimidine and pyrazole rings. The coordination polyhedron of the metal atom is extended to a distorted tetrahedron by two halide ions. In solution, CuLBr2 undergoes slow transformation into CuL(1-x)L' (x) Br-2 and the binuclear (X-ray diffraction data) Cu(I) complex [CuL(1-x)L' (x) Br](2) (L' is 4-(4-bromo-3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-6-methyl-2-phenylpyrimidine). The complexes MLX2 show weak antiferromagnetic interactions between the M2+ ions.
